What do you think is the most violent bond film for each actor?
Here's what I think:
Connery - Thunderball. Mainly due to Quist's death scene.
Lazenby - OHMSS by default.
Moore - AVTAK, mainly due to Zorin shooting down the miners.
Dalton - LTK for obvious reasons.
Brosnan - GE probably, Xenia's sexual murders spring to mind.
Craig - Spectre. Drilling in bond's head, White's suicide, Hinx crushing the guy's eyes...

Comments
Moore: AVTAK - Followed closely by FYEO. A violent villain, henchman and also character deaths. The scene where Zorin's thugs throw the KGB representative into the propeller always got me. Then of course Zorin gunning down the miners.
Dalton: LTK - So many points to back up my decision.. Leiter getting his left bitten off by a shark, Della's visible dead body, Krest exploding by the pressurizer, Sanchez's death, Dario getting chopped into pieces of the meat saw.
Brosnan: GE - But none of his films exactly stand out as being 'dark' but just silly.
Craig: SP - Don't mess around with Blofeld... As stated in the OP - same reasons.
1. Dalton 2. Moore 3. Connery 4. Lazenby 5. Craig 6. Brosnan
Lazenby: OHMSS because...well you know
Moore: I'd say AVTAK for the reasons listed above
Dalton: LTK and you know why
Brosnan: GE for reasons lifted above
Craig: CR for that opening bathroom fight, the torture scene, the car flip, etc.
